I come upstairs immediately, hoping to see Shay dance again. She was waiting for me. She is sitting by the window. As soon as I enter, she waves and quips, "Good afternoon, Kitten." "Uh, h-h-h-hi...." I stutter. She chuckles and continues. "Look, Kitten, I'm sure that not a lot of people like being oogled at. I'd appreciate it if you'd stop. We can talk every night if you'd like, but please just don't stare at me like that anymore." I nod. "Good. We understand each other now. Good. So, you wanna talk?" "Yeah." I'm vaguely aware that Jacob is watching us while pretending to sleep. I point my index finger at the ceiling.  "One moment." I stand up, walk over to Jacob and slap him. Then I go sit back down. "Ok, I'm done now." She's holding back laughter. "Ha!" Not anymore. I smile. She thinks I'm funny!

"So, uh, tell me about yourself." I can't help but laugh there. "Well, Kitten, I used to live in Oregon. I had a really small house. I went to a private school. I actually had more than one friend." "I'm honored." "Don't be, Kitten. I wasn't talking about you." "Now, that's just insulting." "Oh, don't be insulted, Kitten." "Too late." "Aw, poor, poor, poor Kitten. I didn't mean to hurt you." "Sure." I laughed again.
